Size/Volume: 720ml
Rice: Yuki no Sei
Rice-Polishing Ratio: 28%
Brewery Location: Niigata Prefecture
This sake is the “step above” from the makers of Manju and Hekiju (Kubota). Each grain of rice has been milled to 28% and the nose is filled with hints of apricot, flower blossoms, salt water and koji rice. Perhaps one of the “cleanest” like water sakes on the planet. Tasting Notes: A limited sake the opens up the most during the Fall season, when the moon is most beautiful. The reason behind the name "Tokugetsu" (Special Moon) is because the rice, when polished down to 28%, it shines like the moon in a dark sky. Boasts an elegant aroma and delicate, gentle flavor.
An exclusive sake produced only once a year during the harvest moon period by Kubota Brewery in Niigata prefecture. The rice is polished to 28% with painstaking care for three days and nights to ensure that the grains remain whole. The brown rice grains have a round appearance, similar to the shining full moon. Fermentation takes place for a month at regular temperature. Contains 15-16% alcohol. Made with Yuki no Sei brewer's rice. 28% rice polishing ratio. Produced by Asahi Shuzo in Niigata prefecture.
